Birmingham (Ala.) Briarwood Christian quarterback Barrett Trotter was all set to learn a version of the West Coast offense at Auburn. But with the hire of new offensive coordinator Tony Franklin, Trotter will be part of an offense he already knows like the back of his hand.

"I'm excited about it," said Trotter. "It's the same thing I've been running at Briarwood and I really liked it and couldn't be happier that I get to keep running it down there at Auburn."

Trotter is also excited to be playing under Franklin who he recently spoke with on the phone.
